    I have passed this food truck a number of times, and have never had the opportunity to stop by…read more They stopped by my job today, and lunch time, and since it was busy morning I figured why not. The prices were VERY reasonable, so I ordered a chicken kabob, with barbecue sauce, corn on the cob with parmesan cheese and butter, and an arepa filled with mozzarella cheese, only $10 for all that food. The food was pretty good, better then I expected and I am very full. It was definitely worth the money, and a great lunch. They take cash and credit cards! I'd definitely grab something to eat here again in the future.

    I must have passed this truck about a hundred times on Bergenline Ave. Very random truck to have…read morealways thinking to myself they must have good corn. Out of all the times I passed by I never had a chance to actually stop and try it out. It's actually in a conscientious location, right near the park and across the street from a huge parking lot. On one special day, I was browsing Uber eats and they popped up as an option. Clearly nothing else mattered on there except for trying the corn guys. I placed my order for an arepa, corn on the cob with all the toppings, and a hot dog. The food was delivered nice and hot. The corn I noticed was not your regular Mexican Street Corn, they used Parmesan cheese instead of the cheese that is regularly used. I took one bite and it did not matter...all I can think to myself was OMG why didn't I stop to get this sooner?!?! So fresh, so sweet, so delicious. It's easily the best corn on the cob I have ever had. If I could give more than 5 stars for this corn I would. The arepa and hotdog was also delicious! I have been hooked ever since and get them regularly now. If you see this place, do yourself a favor and get some corn.

    Shared a combo meal and wrap with my husband after hearing amazing things about this truck and…read morerealizing we were already nearby! We came right at opening (around 7:30pm on a weekday), and there were already a couple people waiting for it to open. Luckily we didn't have to wait too long to place our order, and our meal was made fresh to order (but was still ready quick). I'm not typically a food truck person, but I was impressed and enjoyed the meal. Of the two proteins, I preferred the chicken. The extra hot sauce had a great level of heat, too!

    I'm a sucker for halal carts and have heard great things about this spot! Came here just before 8pm…read moreon a Wednesday and there were a handful of people in line to order, but nothing too crazy and was able to order in like 5min. Ordered a fish masala platter and beef chapli kebab platter. It took about 20min to get our order which definitely felt on the longer side. It was because of the fish prep. If you're in a rush, just get one of the chicken/beef platters or something. There were about 5 other orders that came after us that got their orders before because they had ordered stuff like chicken over rice and what not. Once your food is ready they'll ask what sauces you want. We got white, some red (spicy) and green (lemon herb). We booked it home immediately and started eating within 20min. Ok so how was the food? Pretty good! I think the biggest standouts from this place is the rice (nice and fluffy) and the sauces are pretty bold, but balanced (or as balanced as you can for this). The beef chapli kebab is great and I feel is pretty rare for most halal carts. They're basically minced kebabs with herbs and spices slammed in so lots of different flavors and texture. The masala fish is also good. It obviously got a little soggy from the wait, but some pieces had a crunch. It wasn't particularly bursting with masala flavor, but with all the sauce it kind of makes up for it. The only thing in my opinion that sucked was the fries. They're like an even worse version of in-and-out fries. Just soggy and zero crunch. It's a bit of a write off for me, but it doesn't detract too much. The only shame for me is they don't open until 7:30pm. Wish it would open just a bit earlier, but they're def open late if you want the late night munchies. Also, they take card with a 3% up charge, so bring cash if you got it. Total was just under $30. TL;DR: Pretty good halal cart. Opens later, but good for late night munchies. Fish masala is pretty good, but can be a wait. Beef chapli is good, too. I'm sure the standard chicken over rice is good, too.
